I created a DVD with menus etc, the DVD i made is a series of 6 episodes. Once i had created the DVD I ran is through shrink, all seemed fine until i ran the DVD, its really stuttery and its cut about 5 mins off the end of each episode. Anyone know whats wrong? or have a solution?

B4 going and buying different burner, take this into consideration.
Can you watch the DVD you created on whatever DVD program you watch movies with on your PC before you Shrank it?
How much compression did it take for 6 episodes on 1 disc? That much compression has been known to hurt, did you do advanced quality settings?
How fast was the burning speed and with what media did you burn on? Older DVD players for the TV don't like all media (some like R+ others R- all like DVD-ROM so booktype whenever possible)

Yeah i can watch the DVD i created before shrinking on my PC with no problems. It took about 45 mins to compress it when i made the DVD it was in top quality and when i shrank it was also. Took about 3 minutes to burn, and i used +R

Your burning WAY to fast. Slow it down to 4X.
Post a burn log, if possible.

Shrink only shrinks, not burns. What do you use to burn?

I do not know that program. But generally speaking, put your blank disc in first B4 starting any process. Then when you open the program,click whatever to show the drive yer gonna burn with, there should be an option.
_edit_ I use Nero suite 6. It has options to make, burn, and shrink (recode) anything when used with proper decrypter tools.

I don't know that program either. But like Deadrum33 said, it should be there.
I use DVDLab Pro and TSUNAMI-MPEG DVD Author PRO. Both good and easy to learn. TSUNAMI-MPEG DVD Author PRO has wizards which will "walk" you thru each step.
